Essential oils for skin and hair care are gaining popularity today as they are considered organic due to the very fact that they are extracted from parts of a plant like its leaves, barks, rinds, and herbs. There are also various extraction methods used by commercial producers in order to add these oils into products like creams and gels into a concentrated form. These products can also be used directly onto the skin or by diluting them in water. However, the real question is how much of an effect do these oils bear on our health. It is best to get your doctor’s opinion and stop using it in case you find any side effects. Here are a few things to be aware of before you use essential oils for skin and hair care: 1. Use essential oils if you are too anxious. There are certain simple smelling essential oils such as rosewater, chamomile, and lavender that can be rubbed on your skin or breathed in through diffusion in the air. This will help calm down the mind and prevent any stress or anxiety from setting in, especially if these are triggers for your hair loss or skin rashes. 2.

Most of us may have at one point wondered what’s the big fuss about an eyeliner; as all we need to do is draw two small lines until we realized it wasn’t. A minute shake of the hand, blinking of an eye, or opening your eye a microsecond earlier could completely ruin your makeup. Eyes are not only your window to the world, but the eye also expresses your emotions and personality. What eyeliner do is convey your emotion and attitude to those around you. They also help you to bring out the fullness of your eyes. They can make small eyes look big and big eyes look small as well. It all depends on how effectively you use the lines. How you style your eyes helps you to pull off any look. A simple style can give you a classic look, whereas the winged or the fishtail style can match with a trendy outfit. Some of the simple styles that are popular and easy to try for beginners are as follows: 1. Natural style This simple style highlights the natural shape of the eye. This is ideal for daily makeup and is easy to achieve. You can start by drawing small strokes along your upper eyelash.

With patience and practice, anyone can master the art of flawless eyeshadow application. With the right tools and complementing colors, you can do it easily at home. From choosing neutral shades of shadow for everyday makeup and darker and dramatic colors for parties or special occasions, you can mix and match colors to create dramatic looks to amp up your look. Here are a few steps you can follow to master the art of applying eyeshadow. 1. Primer base Always apply a primer over the eyelid so that the eyeshadow stays on throughout the day. If you are going in for a fuller eyeshadow application, apply the base right through the brow; however, if you are limiting the eyeshadow to the crease, then use the primer only up to the crease. You can apply a primer using your finger, but it is recommended that beginners use a Q-tip or a brush. 2. Eyelids Once you decide on the color, you can use the blending brush and dip it in the shadow and sweep the color on your eyelid. You can then close your eyes and blend it across the eye simultaneously smoothing the rough lines. You can make it darker if you want to go for a dramatic look.

Once you have zeroed in on the type of foundation suitable for your skin, it is necessary to understand how to apply it. Quite often, after applying the foundation while at home, we are not satisfied with the desired effect. However, when we do a trial session at the store, and the makeup artist/advisor helps us choose a foundation and applies it on our skin as a sample, we find the final result to be amazing. The main reason for this disappointment could be improper application. First of all, your face should be clean and without any grease or uncleaned makeup. You should wash your face well and wipe it dry before beginning with your makeup routine. You can also follow this with another face cleanse using cleansing milk. After this, you will have to apply moisturizer and a primer to prepare the face for applying a foundation. In the following, a brief description has been given on how to apply different types of foundation: 1. Powder foundation You can simply pat on a powder foundation with a puff. If the foundation is a full coverage one, then you can apply it all over the face and press it onto the skin with a powder puff.

The hair extensions market is growing at a rate of around 40 percent annually, as consumers are willing to explore and experiment with new trends. Celebrity endorsements also play a pivotal role in promoting this industry. As per a recent analysis by the Professional Beauty Association, there has been a 28.5 percent increase in the number of professional salons offering hair extension services in the country over the past two years alone. 1. Own-hair extensions This trend once started as the result of export and sale of human hair that was otherwise discarded from salons or offered in temples in a few Asian countries. A lot of unprocessed hair used to get collected, and these went on to be designed as human hair extensions to be attached to the regular hair for more length and volume. This culture has today become a norm wherein you can opt to save your own hair when you go for a haircut at salons. Widely welcomed by many who prefer to use real hair extensions but do not prefer to have hair from another donor attached to their own, own-hair extensions have become a trend in many parts of the world. 2. Synthetic hair extensions Wigs have been in the market for a couple of centuries now, and the modernization of the wigs has resulted in synthetic hair extensions.
